Size / Weight / Age

Maturity: L m   ?   range ? - ? cm
Max length : 32.0 cm TL male/unsexed; (Ref. 1441 )

Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Diagnosed from its congeners in Europe by the following characters: anal fin with 15-18½ (usually 16½) branched rays; back not keeled behind dorsal base; in spawning season, males with a broad black midlateral stripe, belly and check white (Ref. 59043 ).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Inhabits rivers and streams, usually with relatively swift current (Ref. 59043 ). Also occurs in lakes and lowland water courses with little current. Feeds on invertebrates and plants (Ref. 26100 ). Spawns among stones in large rivers (Ref. 59043 ). Threatened due to habitat destruction, angling and water abstraction (Ref. 26100 ).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5625   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00537 (0.00365 - 0.00791), b=3.21 (3.09 - 3.33), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  2.7   ±0.28 se; based on food items. Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Low vulnerability (22 of 100). Price category (Ref. 80766 ):   Unknown .
